Essex Post-Release Ramblings

Well I had intended on sticking with 415, but when I downgraded to it, it didn't fix my appworld problem. So appworld went bye bye, and restored apps from backup and used the keys I had in memopad.
So 431 wasn't the problem, so I am back! The previous browser glitch is gone with the wipe when I downgraded and didn't return when I re-upgraded to 431.
So all is good now! Wheeeeee!

Can't stand the fact that I have to set all options again with the wipe. Bull crap.
I am doing a complete restore of my backup.
All my options and my f*ucking email should work now.
All my apps I will hold off on till I get home tonight and I have a bottle of gun handy.

With BBSAK, they go on pretty quickly anyway as all I do is double click the cod and bingo-bango, they work.

Thank god something goes right with an install.

Why not just do a selective restore of your options, sounds, theme settings, WAP profiles, etc. after you wipe and reload? So long as, for example, your wallpaper and your sounds are loaded where they last were used, your screen layout, folders and such will be restored.

A bottle of gun? Don't do it -- it's not that bad, JayDee. Gin should be sufficient. If you need to talk, call Dr. Prince during the call-in portion of today's show...

Did I type that?
See how angry I was? you don't wanna be around me when I do updates. Its why I drink!!!!

My colleague sees how frustrated I am this am so she is taking me to lunch as a treat. She says I need cheering up! So some good will come of this day...

BTW, everything is back...all my device data, anyway. No apps. Now to watch the memory...

Jaydee, sorry to hear your having such issues-i hope this day get better for you......AND FAST!
.
Well, I had the app loader screen all up & ready to connect my device so it could recognize my pin & well......I chickened out idk why, its not a difficult task, I think maybe I'm just not ready & with the browser font/column view an issue is what's making me doubt the upgrade right now. I know there is prob plenty of benefits to over-ride that, but I'm honestly on CB a good bit & not to fond of Bolt as a browser. So....I'll just wait it out for now.

Sorry you still have issues JayDee. We all kind of knew it was device/os related tho. I hope verizon doesn't give you to much crap over it as far as replacing.
RE: PTT I just use the "BOSS" to shrink it all out. Isn't that sufficiently adequate? Certainly easy. The option is there along with all the other crap to be rid of.
I'm up and running as of last nite and it took only a very few minutes to do it all as I had the other 431 os on and running already. All my app codes and everything saved or never left. The smoothest install yet. That said tho I don't see any diff from the other 431 only that this is verizon's "official"? Big whoop. How's everybody's mem doing? I'm at 293 and steady, very little flux. Shrinking out the start-up vid seems to save about 2.5 to 3 mb.
As has been mentioned around the notification bar is still slow to open on first try then is fine.
Looking forward to TB for 6!

I just saw this post. If you have the 150MB/$15 data plan from Big Red and are looking at dropping it, or you are thinking of getting it, you might want to read this. It looks like VZW is already dumping it. Did too many folks jump on the opportunity to save some money?

Jim,
I used BB BOSS to shrink out the opening vids and the PTT.
Both remained on my device!
It did the same on Sunday when I installed 431 over 415.
WHY?????
That's why I had to go back and remove them.
But all is well right now. YAYAYAYAYAY!

Bring on the themes!

I've had the same trouble with BB BOSS. I thought that it was something that I was doing wrong. I even updated to their v1.1 last night. No change. I had to manually remove the vids from the Java folder before I did my install.

Whoa! Did you just add "No leakage yet"? are you really going to make that call after just an hour?
